Chastity Layman

  Chapter 601 God sculpture

   "We just need to keep an eye on the old thief Fu Yun. He will take us to find the main force of Tianzhu King. If we find Tianzhu King, we will definitely be able to find the South Route Army."

  In the past few days, tens of thousands of horses and horses have been walking in Dafeichuan. The three armies are separated by tens of miles, and they advance separately.

  Going higher and higher, the soldiers felt more and more uncomfortable after entering Dafeichuan compared with marching on the North Road. Some people said it was a cold barrier, and some said that the Tuyuhun people were creating plagues.

  Walking on the snow-covered plateau, the most terrifying thing is the loneliness of no one.

   Can't find the enemy, can't touch the tribe, just keep walking like this, until people panic when they get there.

  However, Qin Lang still firmly believed that the Tuyuhun people were also human beings, and they couldn't possibly fly into the sky, so if they bite Fu Yun, they can always find the main force of the enemy.

  Under Qin Lang's insistence, they followed Fu Yun's escape footsteps all the way to the southeast.

  At the end of May, after a long journey, Qingqi finally brought back the news Qin Lang wanted.

  Find Fu Yun, at Chishuiyuan, which is actually only 300 miles away from the Chihai battle fought by Qin Lang and the others last time, and less than 500 miles away from the battle of Kushan.

   Going around, Qin Lang and the others almost circled Qinghai Lake.

  Qingqi found Fu Yun, and Fu Yun led about 50,000 horses to follow Qin Lang and others like playing hide-and-seek, and came to Chishuiyuan. Qin Lang took out the map and stared at it for a long time.

   Fu Yun has stopped marching and stayed in place for at least two days, which is very unusual.

  Qin Lang immediately held a military meeting.

   "I think Fu Yun stopped here, and it is very likely that the main force of King Tianzhu is also nearby, and Cheng Yaojin's Southern Route Army should also be near here."

  The generals also agreed.

  So the three armies began to move closer together, and at the same time Qin Lang sent more light cavalry troops to go out for a hundred miles to reconnaissance, making sure to sweep every valley and river to avoid being ambushed.

  Xi Feng Cunyi finds Qin Lang and offers him an eagle.

   "This is Costin!"

He told Qin Lang, "Haitongqing is also known as the God of Eagles. It is said that only one of 100,000 eagles can be produced. It is also said that the most handsome man who carved out Liaodong is Haidongqing. My Haidong Qing, it was bought with a hundred Dangxiang BMWs, which is very miraculous."

Qin Lang didn't expect that this bird was a sea dongqing, and it looked like an eagle. Although he didn't know the real thing, he had read about the sea dongqing in his books, and it should be regarded as two different species from the eagle. The trained Costin is indeed very powerful. It is said that because Liaodong came out of Costin, the tribes in Liaodong in all dynasties have the task of paying tribute to Costin to the Central Plains.

   It's just that Costin is very difficult to catch and even harder to train.

   Li Shimin wanted to own a Costin very much. He once wanted to send envoys to various tribes in Liaodong to ask for it, but after being found out by Wei Zheng, the emperor spat all over his face, and finally had to recall the envoys.

   "Since this eagle is so miraculous and precious, the general should keep it for himself."

   "Mr. Wei, this is Haidongqing, the king of eagles, the **** of eagles. This Haidongqing is very magical."

  After careful explanation by Feng Cunyi, Qin Lang realized that this thing is also a good helper for hunting and fighting. The party members can dominate Hequ because of their good party horses, and they are also good at training eagle dogs.

  This eagle dog is not only a good helper for hunting, it can even help in fighting. It not only raises the defense camp at night, but also helps to scout the military situation during the day.

   "Reconnaissance military situation?"

"Marching and fighting is actually no different from hunting. Eagle dogs can be used for hunting, so naturally they can also be used for fighting. This Haidongqing is the **** of eagles. They fly faster and have sharper eyes. They can spot people and horses at very high altitudes. Especially in the grasslands, deserts and snow fields, large groups of people cannot escape their eyes, and if they are well trained, they can also deliver letters and military information."

  Although Haidongqing can't speak or write, they still have some means of communication with the falconer. They can rely on the advantage of high altitude to find and find large groups of enemy troops more easily without worrying about being killed.

   "Is it really so magical?"

"nature."

  An ordinary eagle is not as good at taming as a vulture, but Hai Dongqing, the most handsome among the vultures, is even better.

   "Very good, let Hai Dongqing out quickly, and look for the enemy army in the sky for me, and guide us in the direction."

  Qin Lang asked again, "If they find Cheng Yaojin's South Route Army, can it recognize it? Can you send a letter there for me?"

"The falcon trainer has a way to let Hai Dongqing recognize the South Route Army, and he can send a letter. He is afraid of being accidentally injured by the South Route Army. This Hai Dongqing is too precious, and this is a well-trained and magical Hai Dongqing... "..."

   "You let me find the main force of Tianzhu King first, and find the location of the South Route Army by the way, and don't use it to send letters for the time being."

  Xi Feng Cunyi heaved a sigh of relief, this eagle is his treasure.

  ·······

   As expected of Xifeng Cunyi's precious thing, after Haidongqing was released, he soared high into the sky, and Xifeng Cunyi personally led a team of Qingqi to chase after Haidongqing.

  Qin Lang didn't know how they were going to communicate with this bird, but in fact, they did bring back important information very quickly.

   Confirmed the location of Fu Yun's army, not far to the south of Fu Yun, found Cheng Yaojin's Tang army, and also found the main force of King Tianzhu.

  Qin Lang sent dozens of Qingqi to investigate.

   All the way news summary, intelligence confirmation.

  The information guided by Hai Dongqing is correct, Cheng Yaojin found it, but he was trapped.

Cheng Yaojin was trapped at Yematai, Chishuiyuan, while Liu Lancheng led more than 10,000 people, but was surrounded by Tianzhu King and Fu Yun's men and horses at Yema Beach at a place less than tens of miles away from Cheng Yaojin. Forced to set up a camp, dig trenches in front of the camp to resist horses, throw barbed wire and caltrops, dig pits for horses, and resist the enemy with bows and crossbows.

   It's just that the place Liu Lancheng is guarding is safe and secure, and under the siege of enemies several times their size, I'm afraid it won't last long.

  Although I don't know why the South Route army was divided into two groups and they were all besieged, but it is a fact that the situation is not good. Regardless of studying why this was the case, Qin Lang hurriedly called a military meeting with the generals.

   "We should go to the rescue immediately."

   The generals who came to the military meeting shouted one after another.

  Qin Lang spread out a map in front of the generals. This map was a bit rough, but fortunately, the information brought back by the scouts added some details of the map, and even corrected many mistakes.

   Judging from this map, the situation of the South Route Army is indeed critical.

"According to the information obtained so far, Liu Lancheng is trapped on the wild horse beach on the west bank of the Yellow River. There is a flat river here, which is easy to attack and difficult to defend. Liu Lancheng has about 10,000 troops. It is estimated that it is the right army of the South Route Army. The combat power is slightly weaker. Now Fuyun's 50,000 troops, and the Tianzhu King's Department also have about 50,000 people, encircling them on both sides, encircling them here."

"I guess Liu Lancheng was just surrounded, so in a short period of time with a strong bow and crossbow, it didn't let the bandits take advantage of it, but this kind of defense obviously can't last long. No matter how strong the bow is, there are always arrows. .”

Based on multiple intelligence reports, Cheng Yaojin's troops trapped tens of miles away are relatively safe now, but their number is only a few thousand, and they have obviously suffered heavy losses. Qin Lang speculates that the troops should be divided when the Southern Route Army pursued the enemy Cheng Yaojin led the left army's elite soldiers in front, and Liu Lancheng led the right army behind with food and supplies.

  Cheng Yaojin was attacked, defeated and besieged, and suffered heavy losses. Liu Lancheng reinforced him, but was also besieged.

  Because Fu Yun appeared from behind, Liu Lancheng could neither meet Cheng Yaojin nor retreat, and finally had to stand on the dangerous Wild Horse Beach.

  If Qin Lang and the others didn't show up in time, these two teams probably wouldn't last long. In less than a month, even if it is not breached, it will surely die after running out of food.

"There are at least 250,000 Tuyuhun troops in Chishuiyuan. Although the 250,000 actually refers to the total number of tribes, including men, women, and children, they are definitely strong. They are familiar with the terrain and more adapted to the climate here. There is no shortage of food and grass. Even the longer the delay, the more people they can gather."

  The right army leader Liang Jianfang said directly, "It doesn't matter how many troops he has, just kill him directly. We are also strong now, with 60,000 troops."

  But Qin Lang didn't reply to him.

  A total of 60,000 people is not bad, but in fact, only the former part of the three armies rushed to the confluence, and there are still many people driving cattle and sheep on the road behind.

  Even if they are all here, the number is 60,000, but the real Longyou Army is less than 10,000, and tens of thousands of them are the newly surrendered Tuyuhun Army. It is hard to say whether the loyalty of these people is reliable or not.

   But at least their combat effectiveness is not worthy of too much trust.

  Therefore, Qin Lang didn't feel at ease about the so-called 60,000 army. He really thought that with 60,000 people, he could go on a rampage and kill 250,000 Tuyuhun. This is obviously too pretentious.

  Once something goes wrong, it will be beyond redemption.

   "We have to create some opportunities to win by chaos and surprise, instead of simply rushing to a decisive battle." Qin Lang knew for sure.

  The Tang Army who can really rely on it is less than 10,000. Although the South Route Army is in the front, they are now trapped, and they have suffered heavy casualties and their strength has been greatly reduced.

   You can’t do things like gourd baby saving grandpa.

  Qin Lang picked up a pen, walked to the map, bent down, and drew a line on the map.

  The starting point of the line is exactly where they are now, but the end of the line is extremely far away from the source of Chishui. There is already a name marked on that place.

   "Wu Hai."

  Qin Lang put down his pen, stood up, and pointed to the line he newly marked on the map, "Look, everyone."

   "Wu Hai?"

Duan Zhixuan stared at the line in surprise, looking at the destination Wuhai, "What is Wei Gong's intention, do you want us to go to Wuhai? Isn't this the opposite? Cheng Yaojin and Liu Lancheng are trapped in Chishuiyuan, in the east, Wei Gong But you want us to go west to Wuhai?"

   "Everyone, the sources of Wuhai and Chishui are also connected, and there are hot spring valleys to connect them."

   "Is that also looking far away?"

   "That's right, it's more than a little far away!"

   "We are only a hundred miles away from Mustang Beach, but we need at least three hundred miles to get to Chishuiyuan by detouring Wuhai!"
